What is the name of your state? CT, moving to Flordia
I was driving to the store to get some groceries with the family. Arguing with the wife for a few minutes before i know it, there is a state trooper on my ass.
He comes to the car and asks me, do you know how fast you were going? I responded with, I don't know sir. He says did you know 86+ in CT in considered wreckless driving? I said 86? He said, YEA 86.
I explained to him that I was moving to Flordia the 1st of Aug before he went back to his car.
He came back to my car. Ok, here is a summions to appear in court. You can tell the judge why you were doing 90+ in the rain. I said 90+?
He said yea, I was on your tail doing 85mph (before he hit the lights) and you were pulling away from me. Officer I had no idea...cuts me right off and says.. I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT!!!!
Be in court on Aug 3rd or I will come to get YOU. But sir, I am leaving the state and moving to Flordia, like i told you earlier. I need the date changed to before the 1st. Well I CAN'T change it. You are lucky I don't take your car away and take you to jail. Call the court to take care of it and walks away....
Now let me just say that I had *no idea* how fast i was going but I truly believe I wasn't going 90+, Maybe, maybe 80. Which is still speeding and I completely understand that. I have no problems with getting caught.
NOW my problem is I have to be OUT of CT by July 27th. The court date is Aug 3rd. I tried calling the clerk 5 times in the past two days but they are telling me the officer hasn't handed in the ticket to them and they have UP UNTIL the 3rd of Aug to hand it in.
What happens if i can't change the date of the court apperance? I have no choice but to leave CT and go to FL on the 27th of July.
My license is current right now. If i go to FL and get a new license from them before the court date, what will happen in the future if i never went back to CT to attend court the 3rd of Aug?
Could i just call the court and ask them if i could just pay a fine, seeing that i am never going back to CT? How will this affect my insurance etc...?
Thank you in advance for ANY advice anyone can give me.
